Speaking to The Verge, Sweeney said that this partnership will greatly expand the developer base.

He also clarified that there would be a review process for whether Fortnite experiences are made with tools from either engine.

Quote, as this evolves into a completely open system, we'd only have reviews for stuff that we host.

Anybody that would be able to put anything anywhere and people would be able to browse to it like you do in a web browser today.

Some unity right there.

Between two... Epic move.

Yeah, between two... Oh, that's really good.

Thank you.

Between two engines that are constantly...

Whenever you're in the industry, you go, oh, I know a little bit of Unity or I know a little bit of Unreal.

And it's rarely kind of both unless you've been in the industry for quite some time.

So that's very, very cool.

I don't really... I would have to hear more from developers as to like...

how it really changes their day-to-day, how this really affects the workflow and everything like that.

But I think it's great because we've seen a lot of very successful Unity games as of late, as some more and more devs have maybe strayed away from Unreal Engine.

But yeah, this is a cool little move of Unity.

Are there ways to monetize within?

Well, I would say that many years ago, there were a lot of creators who saw this as the final frontier.

There were a lot of creators in the space, a lot of streamers, a lot of people who...

were streamed, but also... They streamed a lot of Fortnite, but also had higher ambitions of, what if I had a team to make a game within the Fortnite ecosystem?
